just to name a few of my quirks...

Responses to me asking, "Hey, you there... What are some of my quirks?"

Daniel~ "Really, that's a good way to get grounded."

"Sometimes out of nowhwere you get really playful, I like that quirk, I think that's an awesome quirk."~Snow

"What's a quirk?" ~Emmeli

"A quirk? You are a quirk." ~Hannah

Ben~ "I know better."

I like the names Millicent, Maximillian, & Magnus; bunnies make me happy, (they don't have to be real bunnies, just bunnies); most of the things that make me happy, also make me sad somehow. These things are kind of quirky, I guess. These things are not strange or odd, but I don't really know the why about them, and I guess that's what makes them quirks in my mind. Millicent is kind of a weird name. Why do I like it? I guess the truth is, my biggest quirk is that I like things that are quirky. I wrote this blog because Daniel, out of nowhere, gave me this title & said it would make a nice blog title. Now here I am, stuck, with nothing to say. I immediately opened my writing pad hoping Daniel & I could do a little group writing project together, but Daniel acquiesced. Smart boy. Snow caught wind of the idea & opened her writing notebook as well. We're proud of our quirks here. If you don't have quirks, then what do you have? One of Snow's quirks is that she usually only brushes one side of her head when she brushes her hair. (She gave me permission to write that.) Now that is a true quirk, not like liking bunnies. I mean, who doesn't like bunnies? I guess the thing about quirks is that you can't announce your own. You just can't. So I guess Daniel was right, it makes a great blog title, but he was right again when he bailed. You really can't blog about your own quirks, or at least you shouldn't.
